  • Regulations for Human Application
    3b Regulations for Human Application I. Peñuelas (Pamplona) Clinical trials in the European Union (EU) are defined as “investigations in humans intended to discover or verify the clinical, pharmacological and/or other pharmacodynamic effects of investigational medicinal products (IMP), and/or to identify any adverse reactions to IMPs and/or to study absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion of IMPs with the object of ascertaining their safety and/or efficacy”. Consequently, clinical trials can be considered an indispensable part of clinical research which, in turn, is essential to develop medicinal products, and to develop and improve medical diagnosis and treatment. The rules governing medicinal products in the European Union are complex, and they can be found in Eudralex, published by the Directorate General for Health and Consumers, and in some papers documents published by the European Medicines Agency (EMA). Volume 1 of Eudralex (1) “The rules governing medicinal products in the European Union” compiles the body of EU legislation in the pharmaceutical sector for medicinal products for human use, including the basic Directive 2001/83/EC (“Community code relating to medicinal products for human use”). Volume 10 (2) contains legislation and guidance documents specifically applying to clinical trials and is organized in 6 chapters, dealing with (I) Application and Application Form, (II) Monitoring and Pharmacovigilance (III) Quality of the IMP, (IV) Inspections, (V) Additional Information and (VI) Legislation. The current complex legal situation concerning clinical trials and radiopharmaceuticals has been summarized by the Drug Development Committee of the EANM (3), while a summary of the differences among the regulatory frameworks of different European countries has been recently been reviewed (4) A major challenge for clinical research in Europe has been set by the change of how clinical trials have to be conducted.

The interests of the subjects should always take priority over all other interests. (2) In order to allow for independent control as to whether these principles are adhered to, a clinical trial should be subject to prior authorisation. (3) The existing definition of a clinical trial as contained in Directive 2001/20/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (3) should be clarified. For that purpose, the concept of clinical trial should be more precisely defined by introducing the broader concept of ‘clinical study’ of which the clinical trial is a category. That category should be defined on the basis of specific criteria.
